  1. This is one of those posts that appears so simple but might end up a lifesaver for a busy parent who needs to amuse the children. Thanks for sharing. I am old enough to remember plasticine and actually saw some in a charity shop the other day and was very almost tempted to get some for me not my rapidly growing teens and young adult. #MMBC

  3. My two used to love playing with playdough when they were younger. In fact I think they would still probably play with it if I made it now. lol With the summer holidays coming up I think this could be very handy for a lot of people. x

  4. Oh, this sounds like such a cool activity to do, I mean the actual making of the playdough not just playing with it. #MMBC

  5. We used to make lots of different types of playdough! My boys love the scented ones my sister used to make using Jell-O gelatin.

  6. The upside of making playdoh is you can make a really big ball and make something massive with it! #FortheloveofBLOG

  8. Ooo this sounds fab. Most recipes require cream of tartar and I always forget to buy it. This is perfect that it is a recipe which doesn't need it. #fortheloveofblog
